1st Rental in Central Texas
We will be renting our 1st SFR in central Texas. I am a little anxious as in where we could find/consult on a lease agreement. I've downloaded the application off BP and plan on using it, but not real sure where to start in finding a solid lease. Any help would be greatly appreciated, excited to start this journey but want to make sure I do it right to best prevent and horror stories! Thank you in advance!

No need to create one. Use form TAR-2001 from the Texas Association of Realtors. This is the standard form for Texas and has all the wording built into it from cases that have been through the legal system so they are pretty bullet proof. TAR-2003 is the standard residential lease application with all the approvals for background checks.
You should be able to get this somewhere online or from a real estate agent.
